Drillers Get Dramatic 2-1 Win
The Houston Drillers banked on Larry Bilski and he turned in a masterful performance. The right-hander kept the Montreal hitters in check. The final score was 2-1, Drillers. Reliever Jeff Ferguson picked up the win. His record improves to 3-1. Al Johns, who finished 3rd in the ABL in saves with 24 in 1972, took the loss. Montreal now is 15-11.

Al Thompson was the walk-off hero for Houston. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Drillers second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Larry's stuff looked really, really crisp," said Jared Placeholder, the Drillers manager.
